Sprint Instinct vs BlackBerry Curve – Which phone is better for a business cellphone, the Sprint Instinct or the Blackberry Curve? So the instinct is cool and everything, but I need a phone for.

This post has one comment

I was so happy when my storm broke. I had had it for 4 months and it is the most frustrating phone I have ever owned. It unlocks too easily when in your pocket, mute button gets clicked when talking on the phone.
